I don’t think it’s a headache, but I understand people zooming in it. It’s the first time Levi has done this, and it happens in a chapter that specifically mentions headaches as an Ackerman trait.

Personally I believe this panel is a red herring. It’s designed  to make us wonder, however briefly, if Eren’s Ackertalk is accurate. I don’t think it is. Not Eren’s speech nor the headache. There’s no sfx to indicate headache and it is just as easily explained as being situational. We’ve never seen evidence of Levi having headaches despite frequent disagreements with Erwin. Or Kenny for that matter.

I also puzzle over the idea that the head grab could indicate a change of liege,  especially when Levi’s promise to Erwin is given special focus as he is literally kneeling before him in knight/liege fashion.

So yes, I agree with you. I understand the talk surrounding the panel, but not many of the possible interpretations. 

If Eren lives to the last panel, I know a lot of people would be happy.  Whether it’s Eren, Jean, Grisha or a random NPC, my hope is also for the curse to be broken. It’s the only ending that would make them truly free. Thank you for sharing your ideas with me. 

Unless I missed something, I don’t think we can answer this definitively. 

In chapter 97 Willy is introduced as the head of the Tybur family.  I think maybe we were supposed to assume that the large crowd of unruly children were his, but I don’t think it was ever explicitly stated that he was their father.

A few people have commented about the humor. Most seem to enjoy it but others would prefer something less silly. I’ve been wanting to talk about the whole poll process since returning from hiatus, so I will use this as an opportunity to do that.

My poll started after the serum bowl because there were loud voices on both sides but I was most curious how the quiet majority felt about things. It’s grown exponentially each month and is now something bigger and more collaborative. It’s not exclusively mine anymore and I’m very glad for that.

The folks at snkpolls.tumblr.com kindly let us host the poll there but they are usually not directly involved. 

This month’s poll was written by three adults, but the people involved vary depending on who has time and who expresses interest. We deliberately keep it lighthearted. Part of that is to avoid anyone assuming the poll created by Fandom Authorities. We want it to be clear that it’s just for fun. We want the people taking it to have fun. Even so, we do take it seriously, and invest a great deal of time and thought into the questions. We hope it exposes useful information about what our fandom is thinking. 

In the days leading up to the poll, we look at tumblr and reddit to see what people are discussing and we try to incorporate those things.  Both platforms have a tendency towards the irreverent. We can’t avoid that. We try to mix the humorous and serious. 

For me, this month was especially challenging because the chapter left us with nothing but rampant speculation. Character loyalties and hidden identities were interesting, but that’s not enough to populate 20+ questions. I needed a lot of help. 

(Let me just randomly insert here that my inbox and messages are open so hit me up with poll ideas between the 5th and the 8th! I will love you for it!)

I hope this clarifies things. I feel a sense of responsibility over this poll, but not any ownership over polling in general. It would be great if more people wrote their own polls from their own interest, focus and perspective. 

Disney Prince confirmed.

There was a wide shot in Episode 33 that showed a large number of horses. All of them were chestnuts and bays. 

Old enough to be sporting crows feet :)

Without knowing Japanese, I can’t say which is more accurate, but my personal belief is that Hange had a brief crush on Keith Shadis in the past. I say this because of Hange’s strong reaction to the accusation.

Rather than laugh it off, Hange says “SHUT YOUR STUPID MOUTH”, which tells me it’s a sensitive subject, and also probably a little bit embarrassing. Hange is normally more in control than this. In most situations where she is teased, Hange jokes back or ignores what’s said. (See basically every interaction Hange has with Levi as evidence of this.)
